It's Okay Not to Get Along with Everyone
Translated by Sandy Joosun Lee
The compelling Korean illustrated guide on seeking balance with our relationships from bestselling author and illustrator Dancing Snail.
It's Okay Not to Get Along with Everyone explores the necessity of maintaining a healthy distance in relationships and surrounding yourself with people you are comfortable with. It delves into the concept of relationship detox for those feeling overwhelmed by interpersonal connections through three parts:
Part 1: Not So Near, Yet Not So Far - Explores setting and respecting boundaries and embracing a minimalistic approach to interpersonal connections.
Part 2: It's Okay to Not Get Along with Everyone - Affirms the validity of not always being comfortable with people, advocating self-validation, and prioritising personal wellbeing over pleasing others.
Part 3: People Always Need People - Acknowledges our inherent need for human connection while advocating for healthy connections with others, even when we may not always get along.
Whether it's learning to say no or embracing solitude without guilt, this book serves as a guide for those seeking balance and moderation in their interactions with people. It's Okay to Not Get Along with Everyone is a must-read for anyone looking to cultivate healthier, more fulfilling connections in their lives.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
